Brown Shakes Sauce Early On, But Gardner Settles In

Great environment here at New Balance fields for Patriots-Colts practice, with bleachers filled, ramps filled, and crowd bringing energy in each 1-on-1 rep.

WR A.J. Brown shaking CB Sauce Gardner on the first rep had everyone buzzing.

Bynum Ballhawks Drake Maye With Pick

It’s a practice, but the 2-minute drill has a feeling of a real game — especially as
Colts safety Cam Bynum intercepts QB Drake Maye in the end zone on what looked like an underthrown ball with 18 seconds left … and Bynum celebrates in front of the crowd and gets booed.

— Mike Reiss (@MikeReiss) August 11, 2026

Drake Maye’s 1:12 drill ends with an INT by Colts S Cam Bynum. Maye had three vertical routes vs. all-out pressure.

Pressure flashed inside, moved Maye off his spot, and he under-threw Pop. Looked like Douglas got behind Bynum with enough air under the ball.
